Unavailable in the U.S.! Miles Davis' moody, evocative music for the Louis Malle movie (translation: The Lift to the Scaffold) comes in two different forms on this reissue. There is a chronological sketch pad of tracks which didn't appear in the original release, or appeared in altered form, and tracks 16-26, which comprise the body of the original release, complete with the odd dollop of post-production echo to italicize the film's dramatic content. Recorded on December 4-5, 1957, the music for the film has an elegant, romantic air to it. In the company of such French jazzmen as Pierre Michelot and tenor saxophonist Barney Wilen, this soundtrack is something of a throwback to the feel of Miles' early '50s Blue Note recordings with drummer Kenny Clarke. Rarely has Miles' open tone been more poignant, and that bittersweet quality probably owes something to Miles' ongoing affair with the film's leading lady, Jeanne Moreau.

"Ascenseur Pour L'Echafaud" is a legendary jazz album by Miles Davis, released as the soundtrack for Louis Malle?s 1958 film of the same name. This CD edition from Polydor captures Davis at his most innovative, improvising much of the music in real time while watching scenes from the movie. The result is an atmospheric and haunting score that not only elevated the film but also became a milestone in modern jazz history. Miles Davis, one of the most influential trumpeters and composers in jazz, has shaped genres with albums like "Kind of Blue," "Bitches Brew," and "Sketches of Spain." His groundbreaking approach to improvisation and collaboration set new standards for musicians worldwide. Polydor, renowned for its high-quality releases across various genres, ensures this classic recording receives exceptional audio fidelity and packaging.
